The key feature of the new product is an OLED  OLED technology was invented by Eastman Kodak in the early 1980s. OLED panels are made from organic (carbon based) materials that emit light when electricity is applied through them. Since OLEDs do not require a backlight and filters (unlike LCD displays), they are more efficient, simpler to make, and much thinner. OLEDs have a great picture quality - brilliant colors, fast response rate and a wide viewing angle. OLEDs can also be used to make OLED lighting - thin, efficient and without any bad metals.screen with a refresh rate that is sufficient even for fans of e-sports disciplines that require smooth images.The new model can reach a maximum of 720 Hz at a resolution of 720p, while at native 1440p this figure drops to 540 Hz.
